I am a TalkTalk customer and eircom are really into this cold-calling lark too. I don't know how the companies have all the details of non-customers - shouldn't be allowed.
Eircom found a new way round it though - I've had personal cold-calling (to my front door!) recently, even though I'm no longer a customer. I've referred the matter to the Data Protection Commission as I feel it's an abuse of information eircom collected from me (i.e. my name and address) when I was a customer.
Talk Talk harrassed me for months even after I'd registered my 'do-not-call' preference. I had to make several complaints to the regulators.There’s actually two ways to do it. If you just want one particular company to stop calling, tell them to mark you off their list which they must do within 28 days. If you want no telemarketing from anyone tell your telephone supplier. This is marked on the national directory database (as maintained by eircom) so no-one can call you.
